haha nothing bro but my head almost exploded searching for words to reply you. But, al is well. I was only trying to expose the hypocrisy of the white man regarding how they have tried to paint us with so much mud that our true identification becomes impossible to determine

Well, for good reasons. If you could let a dangerous mosquito into your home, why not I? I don't care about your preference or opinion. I wish nothing for anyone who secretly supports evil on Nigerians. You are slow and dangerous venom-injecting serpentine clowning as a grey tree branch. You have no cogent reason for supporting Tinubu. After all that Nigerians have been through, you still want to seat another patient in power. You are lucky that petrol is expensive now.
Caseless:
you're even more dangerous to be left with a phone if you think somebody should be burnt alive for supporting Tinubu. Be careful of what you wish on others, it might befall you.

There we go! The conversation is expanding. Would you also call an Ethiopian Jew, "Jewish-American"? haha. If Nnamdi Kanu had a U.S nationality, would YOU accept that he is Jewish-American?
See, we have been totally brain-washed to the point that each time we win a race, we give the trophy to a white man because we consider ourselves unworthy.
Recall, there were blacks in Israel who were also Jews. But, for centuries they have made everyone to believe that all Jews are white. Joseph, the son of Jacob had two sons with an Egyptian woman. The Ethiopian Eunuch was a Jew and so were many Ethiopians.
So, why does the right to Jewish identification belong solely to people from European descent?

I love your verbiage, "South African-American". That is rich indeed.
wealthtrak:

Interesting convo.

Elon Musk is a South African-American of Ashkenazi (or
European) Jewish immigrants
to South Africa.

Elon Musk also qualifies as a
Jewish-American.

Let us reason for a minute, are you truly black? Did you learn your color in school? If so, kindly look at your skin and compare it to that color that you were taught in school. I will provide charts of labelled colors below and would want you to see the names of colors that they teach in art schools. See if the color that you are tagged matches any of the color that matches your skin.

You cited the point. It is a racist tag concocted by the very racist founding fathers of the U.S. That is why I laugh at all these Nigerians playing smart by reading from Wikipedia without using their heads.
That is not an identification. It is a racist tag and more like a modernized synonym for "Nigga".

We live in a country in which citizens rejoice when a law enforcer dies. It is not a coincidence given the litany of crimes committed by the policemen.

The biggest evil in Nigeria are the supporters of these politicians. By the time the mobs go against the supporters who are the spine of these politicians, things will change. If any Tinubu supporter is burnt alive or given cement to drink, others will rethink. There is no need why a man who cannot type 25 words per minute should hold any office in Nigeria.

Nigerians are industrious. If there were steady power, many inventors would have invented magnificent things that could rake in billions of dollars. Buhari will leave this country broke and broken. He has killed every dam sector in the country. Even drovers are killed and slaughtered because of the divide that Buhari has created.

I hope all the assets of those Nigerian Oligarchs be frozen too. The west should Freeze all their stolen loots

Buhari was thrown out of the list of dignitaries invited to Ghana. No one invites Buhari except the doctor. Even in the Uk where he constantly visits, he slides in like an ordinary mugu from Africa. No formal pleasantries, no distinguished personnel comes out to welcome him, he is like a forbidden fruit tree that litters the place in autumn.

The media does not care about your relationship with anyone. As long as you from a place, they will state it and publish it.
In all offenders' biography "born" is always included. "Nigerian-born..." One's place of birth has a strong tie to that person's recognition. Canada is only an acquired citizenship. The man was almost an adult before leaving South Africa. He left before his 18th birthday to avoid conscription. He was fully formed. All his childhood memory is Africa. His formation is Africa. It is shocking that unwise Africans feed into the narrative in which they are al painted. They will defend racism thinking that they are enlightened or trying to show off their half-baked knowledge.
JohnBullMySon:
I wondered about that too. Maybe because he doesn't look it. Or because he doesn't identify with Africa. He's also Canadian but he's never called Canadian American too.

He hated his father BTW. That might have been a factor.

My question is deeper than what you read on Wikipedia. Reality! You do not seem to see the fine line. Has Elon ever been identified by his place of birth in all his public outings? Has any credit been given to his root? they only see poverty and crime. Have they seen Africa through Elon?

Politics / Re: Inside Human Parts Market In Lagos. by gistmega: 5:16am On Mar 09, 2022
Bro, they also kill for organs. they call it organ harvesting. I have been there The number of missing persons is overwhelming. The locals know. It is no secret. Some doctors specialize in removing essential organs from poor patients. Strange things are happening.
woah!!!! Nigerian never cease to amaze me!
there is a similar underground body part market in India but it has to do with the demand for human part for transplant (kidney, heart etc)
in due time, i am sure someones is going to pick up on it and make this market the number one place for doctors to get their illegal body part to transplant.
mind you, in India they dont have to kill people for kidneys, people are so poor that they sell them for peanuts.

Many years ago, I had the same issue with my Landlady. She refunded every damn cent that I gave to her. So, I will advise you to stand your ground. As long as you have that tenancy agreement, stay there! Demand even the cash paid to the agent. If an agent got you the house, the information should come through them. Stop calling A and B.

In most cases, the court will ask you to stay for free until you find an alternative home. When you go to court carry all the (distress- the emotional trauma, the miscellaneous expenses) documents. Start now to gather all your court papers.

Should you agree to move, demand for the cost of transporting your goods to another location etc. A rich Landlord will easily refund your cash and additional costs if they truly need to live there.

To be honest, if you go to court, you will live rent free for a long time. Just get a good lawyer.

No, that is not his goal. His approach failed. He has no strategical anus to sheet out a good war plan. First, he shouldn't have invaded. He should have accepted a proposal to talk while his soldiers stayed around the borders. The Ukrainians would have accepted some of his proposals had he abstained from invasion.
His initial demand was for Ukraine not to join NATO. That would have been accomplished had he staged a sit-down with the Ukrainians. Now, the invasion has immensely emboldened 3 additional countries not to consider but to tender their proposal to join NATO. How can he fight this four frontlines at the same time when he hasn't defeated Ukraine for 2 weeks.
He has currently tightened the relationship within NATO countries and also put Ukraine on the list of Aids recipients not only from the U.S but far beyond Europe.
Russia always suffers depression and famine after each warfare. Imagine what becomes of Russia in 10 years with all these sanctions in place? All the Oligarchs will cut ties with Russia, move their wealth to safer regions and invest in proxy companies thereby distributing Russian resources to the benefit of shoreline countries.
Without a doubt, the cost of rebuilding Ukraine will come from the seized assets of the Russian government and investors. Ukraine at this point will no longer be scared of Russian invasion when they survive this and they will not openly oppose any Russian aggression with confidence of the backing of the world. Think about the guerillas who have volunteered their lives to defend Ukraine and the implosion that will occur within the Putin's parliament by the time his supporters see no tangible benefit of devoting their adulation to Putin.
So many dissents and so many whistle blowers will seek greener pastures elsewhere in exchange for the Russian secrets.
Infrastructure is nothing compared to unity. For example, Afghans and Ethiopians do not have such infrastructure but are willing to die for the arid lands that they believe in.
What risk really does a building inhabited by aged and abandoned people pose to Russia? Why destroy private homes and schools for kids? It make not sense. Even Boko Haram are more strategical.
